CLIFTON COPPER MINES.

The Morenci correspondent of the Clarion says:
 Notwithstanding the depreciation in copper the production of the Detroit Copper Company continues undlmin- ished. It is true that the wages of the mine laborers are not quite as high as might be desired, but thel e is con- soIation in the fact that no reduction is contemplated, The principal mines worked at present by the Detroit com pany are the Copper Mountain, Yam kie, Montezuma, Rynerson and Arizo- na Central, the output of which, both in quality and quantity, continues as satisfactory as heretofore.
 Work at the smelters is running smoothly. One shelter IS not sufi- cient to work all of the ore taken out, a second is therefore blown in a per tion of the time. The production is about 100000 pounds per month, or 13,OOO pounds per day,
 Bill Wright is still on this side of the hill, foreman of the Detroit, Hum ming Bird and other mines belonging to the Arizona Copper Company. There is no falling off in the output of these mines. either in quahty or quan- tity, although, of course, it becomes more expensive as the workings en- large.
 The Longfellow is worked. but not so extensively as formerly, and pro- duces as good ore as ever, and the old dumps furnish tons of excellent con- eentrates.

GILAs COMING LAND BOOM.


 Those Of our people diaposed to en- " the good fortune of other counties ot the Territory, winch are experien- eng or Qn the eve of land booms, over- look the fact that Gila county offers greater inducements to capital for profitable investment in land than almost any other section of the Ter ritory.
 No finer body of land, susceptible of being cheaply irrigated and titled. can be found anywhere in Arizona than that along the line of the A. M. B. railroad, in Salt river valley and in Tentc-a continuous stretch of forty miles. All this land can be cultivated :: the soil IS rich sandy loam, very pro- ductive, that will grow successfully almost everything from the cereals to the most delicate sen'i-tyopical fruits.
